Convinced that they have changed the seasoning mix in his favourite prepackaged tacos, Sam sets out to get some answers. But after a journey involving bizarre fantasies and gumnuts with googly eyes he realises that it is something else that has changed.

Sam has a huge crush on a girl that he sees everyday on the bus. But he is too scared to talk to her. He seeks advice from Mr Meowgi, his talking cat who is also Sam's incredibly unreliable spirit guide.

It's the first really hot day of summer and Sam wants an ice cream. But nothing is ever as easy as it looks - especially when there is an angry mermaid, a card swallowing ATM and a mysterious tiger-kid to distract him.

Christmas will be a disaster if Sam cannot replace the cardboard angel that has disappeared from the top of this tree. But will a Christmas dinner featuring a meat manger with a talking cat and Dave from the two-dollar shop cheer him up?
